Wooa!! “Don’t judge a book by its cover!” This is an amazing album, and for me it scores highly, as it well produced with some really great playing, and an abundance of scripture lyrics. I LOVE the first 3 tracks; I know they are from Canada, but he sounds like he is one of the “good ol’ boys” from down South. If I were to guess his secular music influences at the time, I’d say Black Oak Arkansas,(Jim Dandy vocals for sure!), Charlie Daniels and Lynyrd Skynyrd, then it’s mixed with a beautiful Progressive-Moody Blues style that is so totally unique., and as reported they switch to a BJ Thomas style, and in places sound like the All Saved Freak Band. Yes there are some parts that are ‘a bit rough’ and needed more attention and could’ve been done better, but for someone of the era that I’ve never heard of before “it’s a beauty!”GBU
